Buddy beat me up!!

I HAVE to share what some of my cats have been doing lately while I'm SICK as a dog....

I started coughing a lot and really hard since last weekend and I guess I'm very loud when I cough. A couple nights ago, Buddy was trying to sleep on my chest when I went into a coughing fit..... Buddy got mad, got up, turned around to face me then BOPPED me on the head several times before he trotted away! I was so shocked! I actually sat there and stared at him for a few minutes in disbelief. LOL. Guess that was his way of telling me to SHUT UP.

Another time, Spike came running when I went into another coughing fit and kept shoving his head into my face (rubbing noses)...

A while later, Buddy got up on my chest and proceeded to stick his neck into my mouth as I coughed. I"M NOT KIDDING!!!! He'd do that often to get me to kiss him on his neck- press his neck to my mouth but this time he really shoved his neck INTO my mouth. I ended up shoving him away, sputtering fur out while coughing like crazy...

I wonder what they will do next to try to stop me from coughing!!

Would love to hear any stories you may have about how ur cats tried to help u while u were sick.

You poor thing. To be sick and have your baby whack you a few times. Mine just look annoyed with me and go see their daddy.

I thought Dharma was bad - once I was home coughing and coughing in bed - she got up, walked over, and very firmly tapped me on the mouth with her paw.

A few weeks ago I was home with a virus, and was using a heating pad to stay warm. Then my beautiful babies both came over to cuddle up and, I thought, keep momma warm and lend their support. After a while, I got up to get some soup. Normally, they follow me when I get out of bed and start wandering the condo. This time, didn't happen. What's different, I thought.....on my return to , found out the attraction seemed to be the heating pad, not poor sick momma. They did, however, let me slip in and wrap the covers around me.

This is prolly TMI but why not?

When I was sick right around Christmas, Tonka found it amusing to swat at my hair while I was early one morning

Or better yet, Duke would steal the tissue out of my hand when I would blow my nose
